I just received a layout from the client and I uploaded the image. It is close to this one but with some specific instructions and font sizes. Also the subtitle changed. This is what he wrote: "As you can see, it is a helping hand holding a nice home, all being looked at closely thru a magnifying glass. All those clip arts should be improved upon by your artists. The fonts used are variations of Arial, with the "assist" slightly larger and thicker than the "locators", both in lower case. The byline is one that helps the message."
logo with a magnifying glass is my concept, so i'll protect it from other designers.
"Once a designer introduces a unique element to his/her design, that concept belongs to that designer exclusively. No other designer can develop that idea but the original designer."
The winner is #43. We actually like the magnifying glass on the left side, and like the size, shape, and location of the title lettering.
However, I need a few things to fine tune it. Please ask the artist to:
1. try a few different color combinations for the house, roof, hand, mag glass. We think we'd rather see a blue or blue-purple instead of the red-purple. But would like to see what other combinations the graphic artist or you would recommend.
2. The line separating the title from the subtitle should be darker.
3. The subtitle should read "Personal Guide to Senior Housing" -- should be in same font as title (Arial), leaving a little white space between this and black line above it; font size should make it stretch to same length as black line, and should not go below mag. glass handle.
We like #54 the most, however the red may be too strong a color to use on our web page. Can you change the color of the roof and the hand to be the gold color you used in #43 ?
